Arthur Jones
Claremont, WAFL / Mt. Barker FC
State: Western Australia
Height: 179cm
Weight: 65g
Date of Birth: 18/07/03

Wingman who burst onto the scene with a standout performance in Western Australian's second match against South Australia having 16 disposals and kicking two goals to be among their best players in a hard-fought win in the AFL Grand Final curtain raiser at Optus Stadium. His speed and agility lit up the midfield after showing promise in 10 matches at Under 18s level averaging 12.6 disposals for Claremont who finished runners up this year. Part of the Krakouer clan, he really caught the eye with his competitive performance in the 2km test racing Corey Warner at the NAB AFL Draft Combine before recording a 6 minutes and 30 seconds to finish 2nd overall in Western Australia for endurance.

He’s got some engine on him.

 

[Ash1337]

Why is that?

Supposedly Dons were after Sinn then port traded up then when draper was still available Collingwood traded up.

Arthur looks a bit like a young Jimmy Krakouer. Are they related in some way, both coming from Mt.Barker?

Just read he's Jimmy and Phil's nephew.

 

[fred cook]

Just read he's Jimmy and Phil's nephew.

Do we give number 31 after his uncle

 

[weltschmerz]

I'm actually getting quite excited about Jones, could be a good piece in our forward line

Yeah they said he is related to the Krakouers.

Correction - great nephew. They're his mum's uncles.

Cant remember a time our club has two Indigenous players in our team

and Hill?

 

[weltschmerz]

"Jones burst onto the scene and into the spotlight in the previous WA-SA match with his eye catching speed and movement on the wing and in the forward half of the ground, with this game no different. Whilst Jones can at times lack some polish, his persistence with applying pressure, tackling and following up on his work are some traits that are already well developed. One particular highlight play from Jones came as he got space on the wing with ball in hand, going for a run into the inside 50, taking three bounces on the way, and having his shot drop just short."

Speed, pressure, tackling, and repeat efforts.

 

[BallaratBulldog]

Liam Jones and Hill?

Would have has Stack/Skinner at that same time too.

 

[Prince Imperial]

Harbrow, Hill and Stack played together circa 2010. Retrospectively you could include Gilbee as well.

 

[Ash1337]

Damn. Dante gone

 

[ossie_21]

Visentini gone to Port, ffs

 

[Del203211]

Wanted Visentini

 

[doggie dog]

We don’t need a mid forward

I concur, we have some speed in the team already but we got smashed 16+ goals in a GF
We could of used a decent defender.

 

[dergert]

Stagg would be a huge get from here

 

[Hard Ball Get]

Stoked we got a Koori fella into the club, hope it's the start of something great!

Dropped in to find out about this guy since he was seen as a bolter.

Isn't a Koori kid though as he is from Perth. Something that the media often get wrong is that all Australian Indigenous people are Koori.
Koori is Vic and Southern NSW.

Apologies mate, my ignorance.

There you go….never knew that. Learn something new every day.

 

[Doggies7]

Hope we can land Charlie Dean still. He's one of the few who could actually help us next year as he is a bit more mature body / 20 year old and has already been playing against men. Looks a decent prospect still, hopefully we can nab him.

 

[dergert]

Hopefully port stay clear of stagg

It was only Fritsch & Brown that caused the most trouble.
